Re: Introduce Yourselves
Good on ye for not buying the TSS amp when you read its history and good luck with you NVA purchases, hope you like them. Oh and a big welcome.

Re: Introduce Yourselves
Thanks,
As soon as my new cottage has been rewired and few other things done i'll be pressing the "buy it now" button on the package.
I'm sorely tempted now, but it'll just mean more stuff to haul from one house to another.
I'm sure i'll get banned on the other forum for saying this, but i just got sick of the "do as i say, not as i do" attitude and when i called out the owner I got a wall of text via PM filled with the most ridiculous diatribe I've ever seen. Quite sad really.

Re: Introduce Yourselves
Sadly i won’t be moving into my new house until January at the earliest, but as i’ve sold a tonearm on eBay and have a nice bonus from work..
So the “buy it now” button has been pressed for the P20/A20 combo.
I really like my current Croft, Thorens, DL10 or B&W 705 set up, so I’m quite excited to audition the NVA gear to try back to back with it.
Really very excited in fact!
Of course i’ll do my best to review it after a few days of ownership, although i’m not versed in HiFi speak, so don’t expect any of this sort of crock of shit..
“Leading edge/front edge”
“tonal colour and harmonic richness”
“lifts the pitch of the fundamental note because the harmonic info was missing”
I really don’t understand the above words in relation to music or anything for that matter, but i’ll do my best to give an honest review whether it be good or not so.
